St. Paul’s Worship Services August 18 & 19, 2024
Aug 17th, 2024 | By: Pastor Bode
The Bread of Life gives wisdom and life. Jesus overcomes the crowd’s reluctance to see him as the heavenly gift-giver because of his humanity. He makes clear that the only way to receive those gifts is through the work of God drawing them. This spiritual food that Jesus describes is something no one finds appealing at first…but distasteful. And so today Jesus explains that we need God to work within us, so that we have the wisdom to see that this food gives life and the faith to find this bread most delicious. God has given us the Bread of Life…understanding this calls for the wisdom only the Triune God can give. Our sermon comes from John 6.
